What we have done this week is that we have started working with our text and our presentation in detail matters. For this week we divided the tasks so we have been able to focus more demarcated and efficiently. Some of us are working with the text for the textbook, and others are working with the movie outline and editing. We also had group-meetings as usual, and good media communication, so we all can keep track on what we are doing, where we are, give feedback and comment each others work. Things are coming together nicely and all the aspects we planned to cover are more or less done. What's missing right now is a small introduction, a wrap up and maybe some aspects about current surveillance situation in our society.
About the movie-making, we have worked with a text for a voice-over storyteller in our movie. It’s an outline of what we will present in our video, and kind of our skeleton in our presentation. This is what we are putting video towards. To visualize our concept.
We have written it in a way where a fiction future security company are presenting a new system, and the text is written from that point of view, as we described it in last weeks report. The speech has been generated with voice simulators and then edited together. We have all contributed by searching and finding good movie clips, which is now on its way to be good scenes to the movie, together with some animations! Even if the main object is to tell about the system in words, together with experience enhancing pictures, we also want to demonstrate a typical scenario how the system works (see short storyboard for a “real” situation). Editing has taken a lot of time this week, but it might be really good! Let’s see what this will end up in...
The texts we have worked on this week is based on following topics: Surveillance culture, the developing trends in AI and AI Interaction and what we propose will happen, and crowdworking drivers to explain our idéa and the concept, implementation etc. We now have to work the texts together so there will be a good reading flow. And this is what we will continue doing next week. We will be polishing our texts and tie up the bag, and hopefully complete the movie presentation as well. There will also be a proof reading session, which hopefully will give us some good feedback.
A funny thing in our work is that the deeper we dig, the more we find are really happening somewhere, in the line of our concept. For example is the finding of AI supporting “super recognizers” really good reading for the interested, which are linked below. The technologies are out there, or on it’s way, they are just not assembled to one system yet..
